Definitions

  • the invention relates to a circuit arrangement for generating square-wave signals in accordance with the preamble of patent claim 1.
  • the voltage on the first capacitor during the subsequent charging determines the point in time at which the second capacitor changes from the discharging to the charging state. This threshold voltage therefore goes directly into the tolerances of the circuit.
  • the known circuit is well suited to follow the changes in the repetition frequency of the input signals, but there is no compensation for short-term fluctuations in the repetition frequency.
  • synchronization circuits are generally known which use, for example, integrated circuits which are commercially available as so-called "phase locked loops". These synchronizing circuits generate square-wave signals that match the input signals in terms of phase and frequency. However, they do require a relatively large effort, since they include, for example, an oscillator that generates the square-wave signals and whose repetition frequency is changed depending on the phase difference between the square-wave signals and the input signals.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a further developed circuit arrangement for generating square-wave signals, the repetition frequency of which corresponds to the repetition frequency of the input signals and the pulse duty factor is constant.
  • This circuit arrangement should also have a high degree of synchronization capability, particularly in the case of discontinuous operation, i.e. have a stable starting behavior that is largely independent of the initial state when switching on.
  • the circuit arrangement according to the invention is characterized in particular by the fact that a regulated response threshold is introduced, which is implemented by the first integrating element.
  • This threshold value determining the function of the comparator depends directly on the repetition frequency and varies in accordance with the changes in the repetition frequency. This ensures that the circuit arrangement quickly re-centers itself and remains capable of synchronization even in the event of sudden changes in the repetition frequency.
  • the circuit arrangement according to the invention has the further advantage that it is still very inexpensive can be built. It can be constructed inexpensively, in particular in the form of a thick-film or thin-film circuit.
  • the circuit arrangement has a constant pulse duty factor in a relatively large frequency range.
  • capacitors are provided as the first and second integrating elements. Instead of the capacitors, it is also conceivable to provide counters which are counted up or down by counting clocks of constant repetition frequency or which are counted up and reset.
  • the comparator can also be designed as a digital comparator, so that the circuit arrangement can be produced exclusively from integrated circuits.
  • the circuit arrangement shown in FIG. 1 contains a flip-flop F, a changeover switch US, two integrators I1 and 12, a switch S, three current sources ST1 - to ST3 and a comparator K.
  • the integrators I1 and 12 are capacitors C1 and C2 educated.
  • Input signals E are present at the flip-flop F at a set input and the flip-flop F outputs the square-wave signals R at its output.
  • the time t is shown in the abscissa direction and instantaneous values of signals in the ordinate direction at various points in the circuit arrangement.
  • the flip-flop F is set.
  • the square-wave signal R at its output assumes the binary value 1 and brings the changeover switch US to the position 2.
  • the capacitor C1 which has the instantaneous value SW as a voltage value, is discharged via the current source ST2 with a relatively large time constant.
  • the square-wave signal R opens the switch S, so that the capacitor C2 is charged via the current source ST3. This charging takes place with a smaller time constant than the discharge of the capacitor C1.
  • the comparator K determines that the instantaneous value SW on the capacitor C1 corresponds to the instantaneous value AS and sets with a reset signal RS the flip-flop F back.
  • the square wave signal R assumes the binary value 0, as a result of which the changeover switch US is brought into position 1 and the switch S is closed.
  • the capacitor C2 is immediately discharged and kept in the discharged state.
  • the capacitor C1 is charged using the current source ST1 with a relatively large time constant.
  • the square-wave signals R have a duty cycle of 1: 2, i.e. the pulse / pause ratio is 1: 1.
  • Any duty cycle or pulse / pause ratio can be set by changing the current sources ST1 and ST2. This duty cycle or pulse / pause ratio is always constant regardless of the repetition frequency of the input signals E.
  • the repetition frequency of the input signals E increases, the time period between 1-5 and t4 during which the capacitor C1 is discharged is greater than the time period between the times t6 and t5 during which the capacitor C1 is recharged that the voltage across capacitor C1 becomes lower.
  • the comparator K thus determines the correspondence between the instantaneous values SW and AS earlier at the time t7, so that the flip-flop F is reset earlier and the same pulse duty factor is restored after a short transient. Similar processes are repeated between times t8 and t9 as between times t6 and t8.
  • the square-wave signal R is emitted at the non-inverting output of the flip-flop F.
  • this flip-flop F has an output in which the output transistor has no collector resistor.
  • a transistor T2 forms, together with resistors R1 and R2, a constant current source corresponding to the current source ST2, which discharges the capacitor C1 serving as an integrating element I1.
  • a transistor T1 together with resistors R3 to R5 forms a constant current source corresponding to the current source ST1, which charges the capacitor C1.
  • the resistors R1 to R5 are dimensioned such that the resulting discharge current of the capacitor C1 is just as large as the charge current in the event that the transistor T2 is blocked.
  • the dynamic readjustment behavior of the circuit arrangement when the frequency of the input signals E changes can be determined by the choice of the charging and discharging currents and the capacitance of the capacitor C1.
  • a further resistor R6 fulfills the function of the current source ST3 and the capacitor C2 acts as an integrating element 12.
  • the switch S is an inverter G, which is connected to the inverting output of the flip-flop F and is designed as an integrated component and, as already mentioned, likewise has no collector resistor and which discharges the capacitor C2 and keeps it in the discharged state as long as the square-wave signal R has the binary value 0.
  • the described embodiment illustrates one possibility of square wave signals with a circuit arrangement generation, which is largely composed of digital components, but also of analog components. If the repetition frequency of the input signals E permits, the circuit arrangement can, however, also be constructed exclusively from digital components.
  • the integrators I1 and I2 are each formed from a counter that is advanced by a correspondingly high-frequency clock.
  • the threshold value SW corresponds to a predetermined counter reading.
  • the comparator K then corresponds to a digital comparator which constantly compares the counter reading given by the counter with the given counter reading.
  • the switch S corresponds to an input of the counter, with which the counter is reset to its initial value.
  • a circuit arrangement designed in this way has the advantage that it can be produced entirely as an integrated circuit and can be adapted to different conditions by simply changing the counting clock frequency.
